[opensuse] Checking System Mail
by Adam Jimerson 17 Feb '07

17 Feb '07

When I log into one of my terminal windows, F1-F6, I am informed that I have mail, and I'm guessing that it is the system mail, which I did check that option during the installation, so how do I go about checking it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 10.2 drops USB nic after 3-min - wusb54g-v4
by Bill-Schoolcraft 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

Hello Family, Well my wireless (usb) Linksys wusb54g, with the "ralink" chip, keeps getting dropped, meaning the link-light goes out, power light goes out, zilch... I reinstalled 9.3 - 10.0 - 10.1 and now back to 10.2 and I was convinced it was the USB unit itself till I rebooted into FreeBSD-6.2 and Win-2000. This laptop is triple booted so cross-testing is fairly accurate. It's been up for three(3) days now on FreeBSD-6.2 and the same when booted into Win-2k. My question is that I thought whether a (usb) NIC is supported or not, the power && link lights normally lite up, then it's time for the driver stuff... So, what on Earth would cause SuSE-10.2 to not only drop the connection but turn "OFF" the device too leaving me with "NO" power nor link light?. Is there some USB subsystem configuration files that are adjustable? I got it to work with a static ip but it would always turn off. -- Bill Schoolcraft <*> http://wiliweld.com ~ "Unix is very simple, but it takes a genius to understand the simplicity."

Hi Recently I`ve changed computer and have problem with webcam.

[opensuse] Maximum tar file size
by Janus 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

I need a simple system for regular backups. The easiest would be to make one big tar file out of my home directory and copy it to an external disk via scp. But is there a max size limit for tar files? Can I trust tar and make one big tar file, e.g. 25 GB of my entire home directory?

[opensuse] Desktops and program behaviour
by LLLActive＠GMX.Net 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

Hi all, I use OpenSUSE 10.1. Installed is also Firefox 2. I use several Desktops to organise my work environment. When I use a program like Evolution and click on a link that requires Firefox to open something, it opens the last Firefox I used. If i change my Desktop to another one, Firefox opens in the previous Desktop, which can be a nag, because I now have to search the Desktops to find the opened link. How can I ensure that only the present Desktop is used when opening a link, even if it means starting a new Firefox session. I do not want to disturb the other sessions on the other Desktops. Thanx :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Sorry for the non-threaded response, new spam filtering on the server and well, things didn't go well... :( I tried copying the info from the kmailrc file over to the new system, but it never took. Regardless of if I use the 'query tool' (which I assume you mean the 'Check What the Server Supports' command....It still comes back with the fact that it cannot connect. Fajar- Firewall is not running on the system I am trying to configure to read mail. Firewall is only running on my firewall/router system :) As far as pop3... I don't like pop and haven't used that since like 1997. I know there's the whole 'leave the mail on the server' thing, but that's not what I want to do. I need to be able to check ALL mail (included messages moved to sub folders) from several locations: office, laptop, and via the web. Now just for experiment sake, I added a new account as a pop3 and well...it sort worked. I get a "server certificate authenticity test failed" message. I accept and my mail shows up in a subfolder. This was a Plesk setup on the server, but it's no longer in use. I do not get this message when trying to add/check mail for the imap account. I think that is where my issue is. Is there some sort of setting in the Security tab that I need to set to force it to check the server certificate for IMAP setups? brian -- Brian Jackson Photo Sports ~ People ~ Events http://www.BrianJacksonPhoto.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Wireless Card
by Danesh Daroui 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

Hi all, I have recently installed OpenSuse 10.2 and as I expected I have problem with my wireless card, however OpenSuse has act more efficient than Ubuntu so far. It actually detects my card but I can not connect to my wireless network. I use a HP Pavilion laptop which has a built-in wireless card. It also has a light which will be on if the card is active. This light is always off on OpenSuse. So I decided to install the Windows drivers using ndiswrapper, but it needs the kernel source. In OpenSuse the kernel folder exists but there is no include folder in it which is needed by ndiswrapper. Can anybody help?
